Abstract (en)

A method is described for recognizing handwritings on a distributed computer system comprising at least one server and at least one client, wherein the client possesses at least one graphical input device allowing to capture handwritten data, and wherein the client can at least temporarily be connected with the server, and wherein the handwritten data is captured as a series of coordinates on the client side, the client transmits the coordinates to the server, the coordinates are converted into computer processable data on the server, and the data subsequently is transmitted back to the client from the server for further editing and/or output, plus a computer program product with sequences of code statements stored on a machine readable data medium to implement the method, if the computer program product is executed on a distributed computer system comprising at least one server and at least one client, and a a client for being used in a distributed computer system comprising at least one client and one server, possessing a graphical input device for entering handwritten data, the client capturing the handwritten data as a series of coordinates, being at least temporarily connectable with the server, transmitting the coordinates to the server, and receiving from the server computer processable data converted from the coordinates of the handwriting for being displayed and further edited. <IMAGE>
